Our Challenge

Ready to tackle global challenges like climate change and inequality? This course empowers you to create pluriversal futures, where diverse ways of living and thinking coexist. You’ll gain the skills, knowledge, and mindset to collaborate with regional stakeholders and transform social, environmental, and economic systems. Through a real-world, challenge-based project, you’ll connect global issues to local actions, combining socio-technical and historical analyses with hands-on co-creation. Working in teams and with representatives from academia, government, industry, and society, you’ll design impactful solutions. You’ll learn advanced design, analysis, and leadership skills, along with unique methods for problem framing, responsible futuring, and prototyping. Engaging workshops, field trips, guest speakers, and expert coaching will guide you in developing a prototype that drives societal transformation. Join us and start making a real impact!
